The Teacher's Resource contains customisable and time-saving teaching guides for each chapter including lesson plans, homework ideas and advice on common misunderstandings and misconceptions. The resource also supplies teachers with editable worksheets organised by chapter with notes and answers, guidance on practical activities with safety advice for teachers and technicians and practice exam-style papers with mark schemes.
